Just an oil change. Peter was very professional and called me to say that he could come early if I wished, which was great, because I had been worrying that if he arrived at 5pm or later, it would be getting dark and difficult for him to see. Haven't driven the vehicle yet, but I'm sure it's fine. Thank you, Peter.

First, Xavier came to the appt early! (that never happens :-) Secondly, he was easy to talk to, complete and thorough in his diagnosis and recommendations. I felt comfortable in what he was telling me, and definitely was reassured he knew about what he was talking. (He didn't try to sell me something I didn't need!!!!) I will definitely use him, again and recommend him to my family and friends!

All about Ignition Cable (Spark plug wires) Replacement

The ignition cables, also known as “spark plug wires” are part of the ignition system. They transfer the spark from the distributor or ignition coil to spark plugs that ignite the air-fuel mixture, starting the engine.
Over time, the cables can get weak and break down. This will make it harder for the spark to reach the engine cylinders, resulting in engine misfires. The car may not start at all. If one of the spark plugs has gone bad, the car will still start and run, but it will run poorly.

The fuel in your automobile is ignited by a spark. This starts with the ignition coil, which transforms low voltage power into extremely high voltage. This high voltage is transferred through the ignition cables, and to the spark plug, where a spark is created that ignites the engine’s fuel, and powers the engine.
When one or more ignition cables fail, this voltage will not be transferred from the ignition coil to the spark plugs, and the fuel will not be ignited. Depending on how many of your ignition cables malfunction, your car will either run poorly, or won’t run at all.
